Hazel & Katniss & Harry & Starr

We're dipping back into comics! This time we're hitting some New Adult content with Y: The Last Man, which is Joe's Gateway back into comics as an adult. Both of us have read all of these before, though we don't remember a great deal  (we certainly didn't remember how frequently Vaughan trots out the R slur).This one's tough because the premise is killer (literally) and the comics are a speedy, easy read, but the politics - from the reliance on hypnotized, angry women; the cavalier treatment of trans and lesbian character and the weird war-mongering of Israel - have not aged well.The TV show definitely updates and modernizes this, particular the characters of Elliot Fletcher's Sam and  Amber Tamblyn's Kimberly, though Brenna takes issue with the uncertain use of Nora (Marin Ireland) and Yorrick (Ben Schnetzer)'s stupidity. All in all, we have a good conversation despite Brenna's microphone going on the fritz multiple times!Wanna connect with the show? Follow us on Twitter @HKHSPod or use the hashtag #HKHSPod:
